[Medico-genetic study of the population of Turkmenia. IV. The population geography of hemoglobinopathies].

Large-scale screening for hereditary haemoglobinopathies in five districts and among main Turkmen tribes was carried out. The frequencies of ABO and HP pheno- and genotypes were determined in the same populations. The different kinds of haemoglobinopathies genes were discovered (beta +, beta 0-thalassemia, alpha beta-thalassemia, alpha-thalassemia, HPFH, haemoglobins D and E). The geographic and ethnic differentiation of Turkmen population for beta-thalassemia géne was discovered. The FST values were found to be the same for ABO, Hp and beta-thal gene systems. The role of genetic drift in differentiation of Turkmen population is discussed.

[El Tor vibrios with different enteropathogenicities].

The authors summed up the results of study of enteropathogenicity of 270 strains of the El Tor vibrios isolated the last 11 years. Over 2 000 nursling rabbits were used. El Tor vibrios were divided by their enteropathogenic properties into three categories: 1) the highly enteropathogenic (cholerogenic) ones causing the death of all the biotest nursling rabbits with a characteristic syndrome of cholerogenicity, and failing to lyse sheep erythrocytes; 2) enteropathogenic ones, causing death of some of the biotest animals without any characteristic cholerogenicity syndrome, but with the intestinal lesions; strains of this category are hemolytic; 3) nonenteropathogenic, causing no death of the animals even when their high doses are administered; these bibrios are hemolytic (cause lysis of sheep red blood cells).
